Such was Bowie. Men called him
desperate. Perhaps he was 50; bu.
every deed of his life, down to his
glorious death, was heroic, generous.
disinterested. All his most bloody
eombats were waged to defend the
rights, or avenge the insults of others,
and never, probably, in affairs of his
own. Wonderful man He PLAYED
with bullets and sharp steel as boy
with his marbles and spinning-top,
and rushed into the skeleton arms eff
death, with the fond impetuosity of a
lover to the embraces of a beautiful
bride. In courage he resembIed those
ancient Gagls, who, if the ocean over
flowed and threatened to drown them,
did not refuse the fight it offered, but
marched against the roaring waves
with swords unsheathed, and W no even
shot, their arrows at heaven when it
Numbered.

How TO HAVE 4 MONTHLY INCOME
From THE FARM.-lst. There must
be diversity of crops grown.
2d. The farm must have the un-
divided attention of the farmer.
Sd. The farm must be divided in
to as many fields as it is susceptible
OF, the more the better, as it will
leave the land longer in turf which
Is the foundation OF rich land.
My farm is at present in FIVE fields.
After clover, | plant corn, tobacco
and potatoes in the fall this land is
seeded in wheat and in the spring
grass is seeded to remain three years.
The hay and grass crop l consider
king of all crops, because the grass en-
riches the land, makes the beeves and
lambs fat. The COWS give an abun-
dance of rick milk and the sheep
heavy feeces OF wool, to say nothing
of the fat horses which add SO much
to the pleasure and comfort of the
farm.
After feeding all the stock abun.
dainty. begin the first of January to
sell all the hay the roads will permit
you to haul and the stock cannot use.
YOU have sufficient capital, then |
would sell no hay, but feed all on the
farm, for the manure bank is the
farmers bank. Feed also sufficient
corn and all the fodder. Everything
on the farm should be kept looking
sleek and happy. Poultry of all kinds
should be sold in January.
In February sell the potatoes. Al
though have never raised large
crop, | have always managed to have
a small income from them during this
month.
In March the spring lambs always
bring good prices. The pigs which
are born this month. with plenty Of
corn meal will pay better than any
stock on the farm, if sold during the
last of April.
During April sell all the lambs and
pigs you can, for both bring good
prices during this month.
May, with good pasture, will pro-
duce large heeces of wool and many
pounds OF butter.
In June sell all the butter and
lambs you can, and the early pota-
toes should bring good price this
month.
In July ship the remainder Of the
potatoes. If you have any lambs for
sale, they should be disposed Of this
month, because they are now at their
best and after this will become trouble
some.
In August ship your tobacco. Keep
wlde-awake, or the fruit crop will suf-
fer.
In September wind mp the fruit
crop. Sell all the grass cattle and
old sheep you intend marketing, be-
cause they are better than they will
be later.
| In October make all the butter you
can from the rye sown in August, be-
cause it is the best butter you make
during the year.
November sell your wheat.
In December, if you have more corn
than you can feed prOftably, sell
wind up the year by selling all the
surplus stock that will not pay to keep
another year, whether at good prices
or not. If you have a large crop Of
potatoes. sell a portion to save the
trouble aud risk of taking care Of them
during a cold January. sell butter
euery month.
This is a system l have adopted for
the last eight years, and it is one |
think suitable and profitable 10 the
farming community OF a large portion
of Southern Maryland, and certainly
to our situation and surroundings

BLACKFOoT NEWS.

1t was reported to us as early as
the middle of last week that man
had been shot and, probably, NOR
tally wounded near Soda Springs,
but sufficient facts could not be
elected to warrant us in publishing.
Since then, however, the report has
been verified and Byron Scott
Brown has died from gun shot
wounds inflicted, it is said, by Bert
Sanderson and t. Cockael. From
the most reliable information we
can gather the facts are substan-
tally as follows: Brown was COM
paratively stranger in the vicinity
of Soda Springs, he had only been
there about three months. A short
time prior to the shooting he har-
vested nine days for Sanderson.
After he left the ranch Sanderson
missed fine saddle and suspected
Brown as the thief. Knowing a
saddle was useless without horse,
Sanderson also suspected that he
would return and get a horse, and
so kept watch over his horses. On
The night of the 23d Brown did re-
turn and united q mare and led her
away; when about twenty feet from
the picket pin he was fired upon by
Sanderson and Cockrell, as he
claimed, and shot four times, he
further stated that he was not COM
manded to halt; nor did he run or
resist. When down, he claims, he
was kicked in the face by Sander
son who also threatened to cut his
throat. He was then taken to San
derson's house and afterwards gave
Cockrell his pistol to take him to
Soda Springs; after reaching Soda
Springs he fingered in agony for
several days and died. A trial
resulted in acquittal.

Lightning struck Charles M. Lee,
a COW boy and also'his horse and
killed them both, near Cheyenne
Wells, Colorado, the other day. The
stroke broke the horn of the saddle,
exploded all the cartridges in his
belt and set fire to the leather of the
saddle, picket rope, blankets, tear
ing his hat, boots and shirt to
pieces, and the fire consumed the
flesh of the left leg from the knee to
the ankle.
Peter Waldo, a colored geman,
who is pretty we'll known in these
parts as a cultus Niger, and if we
mistake not, was born in Boise
county and claims white man for
his father, was arrested and brought
before Justice Randall on Thurs
day last on the complaint of D. c.
Golfer, young man about twenty
years old, who lives some ten miles
below Boise City. The evidence
showed that Waldo was at Placer
vile, Boise county, and got a free
ride with Golfer to this valley.
That while on the trip Golfer took
his purse out of his pocket and
Waldo snatched it out of his hand,
and kept it some time, but finally
gave it back with ten dollars less
money in it. Twenty-Five dollars
was in the purse and only fifteen
dollars when the purse was return

On last Monday evening Herman
Schaub, a miner employed at the
Climax mine on Deer Greek, was
found lying at his cabin door in an
insensible condition. He was tax
en- to the Miners Hospital at Hal
lev and an examination being
made it was thought that his con-
dition was the result of the burst
ing of blood vessel.
On Sunday morning last, Morris
Ashton, of Challis, blacksmith by
trade, met with fearful accident
which will in all probability cost
him his life. He intended. to go
out hunting and arising at an early
hour, saddled his horse, young
colt, and started. Some time after
he was discovered lying senseless
in the road, his skull crushed and
his face bearing marks OF having
been fearfully bruised. 1t is sur
missed that the horse threw Ashton,
and one of his feet being held by
the stirrup he was dragged some
distance, during which time the an
imal kicked him in the head and
face. The nature of his wounds
are such as to give no hope for re-
covery, and at last accounts he still
remained unconscious. On last
Christmas his wife died, and should
his injuries prove fatal, four chill
dren will be left orphans and be-
reft of fathers care.
